I saw your post on hopefuls Christopher so I came looking to find it! The composition is wonderful and the exposure truly shows the exquisit craftmanship of this ceiling! Wow, Russia, what an amazing adventure for you! #7855255

Making this my favorite of your April entries, Chris -- just love the subtle white on white patterns and lines here. Exposure is right on. My other favorites were Washington DC (an oft photographed monument and reflection, beautifully framed by the cherry blossoms and the whole is perfectly composed), Love Detail (I know it did not score an EP but I would encourage you to resubmit) and Still Life with Ties (I know the set-up is not yours but I just love it and the bold colors, too, and your exposure and framing are right on). Good luck #8607878

You know how pleased I am to see this one, Chris -- way to keep the faith on a wonderful and sophisticated image. It is stunning in its simplicity. Congratulations on the finalist and good luck in the next round. #8825553

Thank you all VERY much! This is one of my top favorite images from a trip to Russia last year, and as I think I said earlier in this thread, it has been through 5 resubmits to get here...! So I'm especially proud of this one! #8841573

Congratulations! (again! -- this is getting tiresome). You are so much better than the rest of us mortals it is amazing. You have a wonderful talent. Your eye for photography is simply outstanding! #8843809
